BILBAO • Guggenheim Museum Bilbao • Ongoing

First on view at the Royal Academy of Arts in London last autumn, the exhibition surveys 1991 Turner Prize winner Anish Kapoor’s career to date showcasing a number of new and previously unseen works, including a select group Kapoor’s early pigment sculptures, mirror-polished stainless-steel sculptures and cement sculptures on display for the first time.
The exhibition also includes highlights such as the monumental work Svayambh, the title of which comes from a Sanskrit word meaning ‘self-generated’. Emblematic of Kapoor’s interest in works of sculpture that actively participate in their own creation, Svayambh moves slowly through the galleries across the entire breadth of Burlington House.
